>>good morning, lester. the official
death toll
has gone up to 38. it's important to emphasize, there's a huge discrepancy in the
death toll
. late last evening when it began until this morning, many fatalities were taken to a facility. according to them, the
death toll
is at 120. you get a sense of why there's a discrepancy. according to eyewitnesses and people who participated in the protest, they say they came under live fire by the police when they were trying to continue a march from the sit-in to a nearby area in cairo. now the police insist they did not use
live ammunition
. they were trying to break up a crowd of protesters clashing with one another and they only used
tear gas
. all of this came on the day the military called for hundreds of thousands of egyptians to go to the street and support what it was trying to do here in the country. more importantly, skeptics are afraid the show of force in support of the military will mean the military and police will attempt to break the sit-in protest that's been in place since morsi was ousted from power. many feel the violence we saw last night and over several weeks, could once again repeat itself. that is the volatility. ha is the anxiety many have this morning.
